Vishtaspa was an honest, simple monarch but was surrounded by the Karpans, a group of self-seeking, manipulative priests. They convened a council to challenge the revelations of the new prophet and successfully conspired to have him thrown in jail. As the story goes, Zarathustra won his freedom by miraculously curing the king’s favorite black horse. Vishtaspa granted him permission to teach the new faith to his consort, Queen Hutaosa. The beautiful Hutaosa became one of Zarathustra’s greatest supporters and assisted him in converting Vishtaspa.
Vishtaspa, era um monarca honesto e simples, mas vivia rodeado de
karpans, um grupo de sacerdotes manipuladores que só se preocupavam
com eles mesmos. Eles convocaram um conselho para confrontar
as revelações do novo profeta, e conseguiram mandá-lo para a prisão.
De acordo com a história, Zaratustra ganhou a liberdade quando, por
milagre, curou um cavalo negro, o favorito do rei. Vishtaspa deu-lhe
permissão para ensinar a nova fé à sua consorte, a rainha Hutaosa. A
bela Hutaosa tornou-se uma das principais protetoras de Zaratustra e
ajudou-o a converter Vishtaspa.


After two long years, the monarch was finally converted. But Vishtaspa required one final sign before he would totally embrace the faith. He asked to be shown what role he would play in the heaven-world. In response, Ahura Mazda sent three archangels to the court of Vishtaspa and Hutaosa. They appeared as effulgent knights in full armour, riding on horseback. According to one text, they arrived in such glory that “their radiance in that lofty residence seemed ... a heaven of complete light, owing to their great power and triumph;... when he thus looked upon [them], the exalted king Vishtaspa trembled, all his courtiers trembled, all his chieftains were confused.”<ref>Dinkart 7.4.75–76, quoted in Bernard H. Springett, ''Zoroaster, the Great Teacher'' (London:  William Rider and Son, 1923), p. 25.</ref>
